CKAN view extension for the creation and display of resource data visualization dashboards through WireCloud embbeded dashboards.

With this extension you can create a view for a resource using WireCloud. You can set the view to load an existing dashboard or create a custom dashboard from the view form.

You need the Oauth2 extension for CKAN in order to make this extension work.
